Star of Our Hope

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1985 #174 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Star of our hope! He'll soon appear Lyrics: 1 Star of our hope! He'll soon appear, The last loud trumpet speaks Him near; Hail Him, all saints, from pole to pole; How welcome to the faithful soul! 2 From heaven angelic voices sound: Behold the Lord of glory crowned, Arrayed in majesty divine, And in His highest glories shine. 3 The grave yields up its precious trust, Which long has slumbered in the dust, Resplendent forms ascending, fair, Now meet the Savior in the air. 4 Descending with His azure throne, He claims the kingdom for His own; The saints rejoice, they shout, they sing, And hail Him their triumphant King.

Author: William H. Bathurst (1796-1877) Hymnal: SDAH1985 #264 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O for that flame of living fire Which shone so bright in saints of old; Which bade their souls to heaven aspire, Calm in distress, in danger bold! 2 Where is that spirit, Lord, which dwelt In Abram’s breast, and sealed Him Thine? Which made Paul’s heart with sorrow melt, And glow with energy divine? 3 That spirit which from age to age Proclaimed Thy love, and taught Thy ways? Brightened Isaiah’s vivid page, And breathed in David’s hallowed lays? 4 Is not Thy grace as mighty now As when Elijah felt its power? When glory beamed from Moses’ brow, Or Job endured the trying hour? 5 Remember, Lord, the ancient days; Renew Thy work, Thy grace restore; And while to Thee our hearts we raise, On us Thy Holy Spirit pour.
